food, crochet, merriment
We’ve had quite a bit of rain around here in the last week or so.
Of course, it’s never exactly enough…
for me.
That is, unless it’s flooding up onto the sidewalk.
Even then, the look of it pouring down…
the sound of it pounding on my metal roof…
and most of all the smell of it–
that makes me want to stand on the porch until I’m soaked–
it just makes me soooooo happy.
I kinda think it makes my yard happy too.
Heh, heh.

on a Friday.
Sweet kids having a King Kong Cone festival. Why wasn’t I there?!
Having a luscious bees’ wax and honey lotion bar from my cute friend’s daughter’s very own bees. Heavenly.
A brave, sweet girlie who is trying to be kind and gentle with Mr. Hobbes–even when he is a little scary sometimes.
Roasted red pepper soup and a triple grilled cheese sandwich. The perfect meal to ward off a scratchy throat.
A cute girl that refuses to stop getting taller! Quit it. Quit it!.
The perfectly toasted marshmallows.
A little kitty who watches everything I do…very, very closely….
even from a silly box.
Good old Mary Poppins floating through a Starry, Starry Night.
The positively perfect breakfast.
Seeing this familiar car with the Arkansas plates in front of me, even if it was just for a week or so.
Pictures of the new Rexburg temple under construction.
Picking a dvd to watch with the grandkids. Nim’s Island won.
My daughter-in-law’s new book Light Among the Shadows.
How about you? What are you loving right now?

Are these perilous times? They are. But there is no need to fear. We can have peace in our hearts and peace in our homes. We can be an influence for good in this world, every one of us.
